    Comes with the territory of having more haters than any other athlete I guess.

            Why dont Floyd ever give rematches? Always some excuse after another. Why didnt he rematch with DLH it was close? The excuse was no one wanted to see it? Why didnt he rematch Hatton in England? Why didnt he rematch JMM then, what excuse was there for that? I think the excuse was he beat him convincinly. Well, yeah i guess he beat a not at his best JMM quite convincinly but no reason there shouldnt be a rematch is there.
            Pac beat Morales and Barrera pretty good, but he still beat them up some more.
            Your comparisons make no sense at all Cotto was Pacs FIRST choice of opponent but only as long as Cotto was willing to fight at a catch weight Cotto wasn't willing to harm his body again so Pac was left to fight Bradley in a much less lucrative fight.

              Why do people act like this is a phenomenon specific to Floyd?

                i thought he lost aswell, but officially he won.

                and lets not talk ****, if floyd beats pacquiao its his best win by far.

                  Its floyd who wants a 154 CW to fight Sergio rather than fight him at 160.
                  do you think before you type?

                    On paper it's probably his best win but not many are thinking Pac can win at this point. Not like when Floyd fought Corrales and more than half were picking Floyd to get Ko'd.
